APPLIED TECHNOLOGIES
WATER REPELLENT
The fabric of this garment has a WATER REPELLENT treatment, which allows water to slide off its surface without penetrating.
4WAYS STRETCH
This garment is designed with a four-way stretch fabric, with the aim of adapting to the shape of the body and ensuring maximum freedom of movement.
ODOR FREE
The fabric this garment is made from has an ODOR FREE treatment, which blocks the growth of bacteria that cause bad odors, without interfering with the body's natural perspiration.
HOLESNET
This garment is made with padding that ensures the perfect balance between warmth and breathability. A mesh of small holes allows for greater ventilation, increasing breathability without reducing thermal capacity. This padding gives the garment performance and comfort suitable for all aerobic activities, even high-intensity ones.
OCTOPUS
The OCOPUS mesh used in this garment is made of a polyester fiber with a cross-section of eight protrusions surrounding a hollow fiber. The material is extremely lightweight, functional in sweat absorption, and has high thermal capacity.
WOOL RICH BLEND
Merino wool is a very light and comfortable material. It possesses all the positive properties of wool and protects the body from low temperatures. Merino is also a breathable and soft fabric with excellent thermoregulation properties. The wool blend prevents shrinkage while maintaining the same properties as pure wool.
SEAM TAPED
Waterproof garments with seams sealed using heat-sealed tape that, when applied with heat, prevents water from seeping through the seams, ensuring complete protection without compromising breathability and lightness.
CAI LECCO SPIDER GROUP
This garment is the result of a collaboration with the Ragni di Lecco mountaineering group: a technical garment that combines functionality, resistance, and lightness, designed to face vertical challenges with maximum reliability.
NATURAL INSECT REPELLENT
This garment has been treated with a natural oil-based insect repellent, compliant with EU regulation 528/2012. The treatment is non-toxic and odorless to humans, but is unpleasant to mosquitoes, ticks, flies, and many other pests. The effectiveness of the treatment may diminish after repeated washing.
AQA WOOL
This garment is padded with AQA WOOL O2® – MERINO LAMBSWOOL, whose fine fibres give the garment high thermal and body temperature regulation power thanks to the moisture-absorbing capacity of the virgin merino wool fibres.
PRIMALOFT® INSULATION THERMOPLUME®
PrimaLoft® Insulation ThermoPlume® is made with small flakes of soft, loose fibers made from 100% post-consumer recycled material. Designed to mimic the lightweight feel, feel, and aesthetic of goose down while maintaining the proven water-repellent properties of PrimaLoft® fibers, Thermoplume® represents a sustainable innovation that delivers compressibility and high thermal insulation, even when wet.
PRIMALOFT® SILVER INSULATION ACTIVE
Specifically designed for high-intensity activities, PrimaLoft® Insulation Active offers both high breathability and unparalleled thermal performance. This soft, packable, and water-resistant insulation ensures comfort during aerobic exercise. It has an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio, and its hydrophobic fibers allow excess heat and sweat to escape, keeping the body warm and dry.
TECNOSTRETCH
This garment is made with a Made in Italy fabric produced by Pontetorto SpA that combines a smooth and durable outer surface with an internal one with excellent thermal insulation. The elastomeric fiber it is made of ensures maximum comfort.
MERINO TECNOWOOL
This garment is made with a Made in Italy fabric produced by Pontetorto SpA. The merino wool contained within it has a high insulating and hygroscopic power: by transporting body vapor to the outside, it gives a constant sensation of dryness.
POLYGIENE ODORCRUNCHTM STAYS FRESH
Polygiene OdorCrunch™ Stays Fresh technology is a natural odor treatment that permanently eliminates bad odors. OdorCrunch™ is created from silica and water and catalytically breaks down and destroys oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur molecules, permanently eliminating unpleasant odors.
ETHERMALOFT® GRAPHENE
Ethermaloft® Graphene is a highly thermally efficient padding, a perfect alternative to down, blended with polyester fibers to enhance and improve its performance. Its key features include heat generation and infrared radiation storage, softness, comfort, light weight, compressibility, shape recovery, washability, quick drying, and antibacterial and anti-mite properties.
AIR FLAKE®
Air Flake® is a sustainable padding as light and warm as down, yet made entirely from recycled materials. Composed of a continuous filament of fibers curled and woven together, its unique structure traps large amounts of air to achieve the perfect combination of softness, volume, and thermal efficiency.
GARMENTS PADDED WITH CERTIFIED DOWN
FILL POWER
Fill power is a number that measures the softness and quality of a down product. Fill power measures the amount of space occupied by one gram of down in cubic inches. A higher fill power means the down has a higher quality, higher loft, and maintains its firmness longer. This is because a higher fill power means the down can trap more air, resulting in greater insulation.
HYDRODOWN TREATMENT
Hydrodown is the name of the new treatment developed by Molina to waterproof down and feathers. Feathers and down are naturally water-repellent because animals (waterfowl) secrete a special type of fat that makes their plumage water-resistant. During industrial washing and sterilization processes, feathers lose much of their fat content, thus losing their natural water-repellent properties. With this treatment, we restore the original waterproof properties of down and feathers, making them ideal for filling jackets and sleeping bags.
RESPONSIBLE DOWN STANDARD
The Responsible Down Standard is promoted by Textile Exchange, one of the leading international non-profit organizations for responsible and sustainable development in the textile sector. The RDS requires the issuance of a third-party verified environmental declaration that ensures that the down and feathers used for padding are sourced from aquatic birds (e.g., geese and ducks) or terrestrial birds (e.g., chicken and turkey) that have not been subjected to treatments that cause pain, suffering, or stress, and that traceability is maintained throughout the production process.
